Flash War

Russian mystery soldiers invaded Crimea by covering up and keeping mum. That could work for us!

A bunch of heavily-armed dudes is just a random gathering — until it’s not.

Heavily-armed men who took over Crimea last week refused to say who they were, so foreign media outlets dutifully refused to accuse Russia of invading Ukraine until after it had happened. Imagine how much better the invasion of Iraq would have gone if nobody had been able to blame the United States for it?
